UNgland...Cry me a freakin' river. You're using taxpayer $$$ honey!
That's the problem right there.
what weight system is “stone”
What’s a stone as it applies to weight measurement?
(too lazy to look it up)
I’ve read many Brit stories, and have never seen this term used.
Coming soon to a goverment agency near you.
I have never bought the notion that healthy food is expensive.
Cheap foods: Carrots, lettuce, onions, most basic fruits and veggies in season (you have to be flexible), many canned vegetables, gallons of skim milk, large packs of high fiber cereal, eggs (you can skip the yolk if you like), big sacks of brown rice, flour for baking your own bread, various beans, big bags of oatmeal. . .
Holy cow! 22 stone=308 lbs!
:-O
Shame on her for stealing taxpayers’ money!! >:-(
38 stone=532 lbs.
Pardon an ignorant yank...But how much is a STONE??
I don’t know lady maybe if you didn’t watch tv 7 hours a day and ate less?? First they should make her come in person to collect benefits and the office should be on the TOP FLOOR of a large building.
Well I must say, eating healthy can be expensive but.....
Well heck, neither can I, but nobody’s paying my food bill.
I don’t always eat healthy, but I don’t eat a lot, either.
Article says she watches tv for 7 hours, I suspect she spends a lot of those 7 hours eating.
Emotionally, do you feel like a worthless slug?
Damn. I weigh about 11 stone. She had to lose much more than I weigh.
‘People ask why I don’t snack on an apple - they’re cheap, but emotionally I don’t always feel like an apple.’
The disability allowance money she used to receive was spent on gym workouts, healthy food and having her hair highlighted.
At 22 stone she is near 300 lbs.
I bet if you stopped giving her money she would start feeling like working sooner or later. What a lazy cow
Too bad her conscience isn’t as big as her ass.
UNgland...Her argument is completely stupid. It costs less or the same to eat healthy than it does to eat crisps and chocolate bars. Weight Watchers food is not ‘eating healthy’. That is just low calorie stuff with fat price tag. Eating healthy is eating a balanced diet- and not junk.
This woman doesn’t need any carbohydrates at all. She’s got about a two year supply of ready energy stored in her body. She needs plenty of veg (all the leafy veg she can stuff in her mouth) and a regular supply of protein. And she needs to go for a walk every day. Start with short ones and work her way up to at least 45 mins/1 hour.
And plenty of water. Water is free and it is the best thing she could possibly drink. And she definitely needs to cut out alcohol if that is in her diet.
